Give your children roots and wings

About this campaign

This design will ship after Mothers Day! If you're getting this gift for mama, please be prepared to give her an IOU on mama's day - and maybe consider shipping directly to her to get it there fastest.

We are offering pick up at 4 Paws - we hope by then Ohio will be able to begin relaxing the stay at home order and we will slowly integrate back into more regular operations. We will not be able to ship these to you if the stay at home order changes or extends. Please keep this in mind when you choose your shipping option. Thank you for your understanding and support!

We started this fundraiser by looking for a theme that would resonate with our Guardian Homes - mamas and papas to our puppy mamas and papas. And as we settled on the quote about giving your children roots and wings, the meaning became more and more profound, touching almost every part of what we do at 4 Paws.

Our puppy parents give our service dogs roots. Our volunteer trainers and staff of every type prepare our puppies for their wings. Our client families often come with roots instilled, looking for wings. Roots come from family, of which we are surrounded by in all ways. Wings are faith taking over, to take that step out out into the unknown. Roots and wings come together at 4 Paws, and extend traditional family units, taking on their own shape and form to create what we have always known as the 4 Paws fam.

This shirt is for everyone. A great Mothers Day or Fathers Day gift. Wonderful for the puppy raiser in your life. Perfect for the Guardian Homes who are our roots and watch their puppies grow wings. For every mama and papa, in every way those words ring true, in our lives. Dog dad? Puppy mama? A whole lotta kids up in your house? Proud parent of one? Cat herder to both 2 and 4 legged children? This is for you <3
